Marilyn Manson Tickets - The True Antichrist

Well, sort of?. I mean, come on - no one can really claim to be that. Christianity would really have a problem on their hands if someone just came right out and said that they were the great enemy of Jesus! The fact is this, though: this truly goth nu-metal rock outfit by the name of Marilyn Manson certainly came close! Born Brian Warner in Canton, Ohio, this man by the age of 18 had began work as a music journalist. Who would've thought he would pioneer the genre of 'shock rock' in a major way? Originally recording his own work as 'Marilyn Manson &amp the Spooky Kids,' it was obvious that they had a thing for pop culture and serial killer phenomenon. The other members of his band had similar names to his own - friend and guitarist Scott Mitchell (stage name: Daisy Berkowitz), bass guitarist Gidget Gein, and keyboard player Madonna Wayne-Gacy. Their frighteningly elaborate performances would ultimately not only disgust some, but attract many - and most notably one in particular came knocking on their door. Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails. With a record contract on Reznor's own label, Nothing Records, Marilyn Manson came out with all the guts and glory you'd expect from a shock rock band!

Marilyn Manson Tickets - The Music of Manson

Their debut album Portrait of an American Family came out in 1994 to some recognition for their performances, enough recognition to earn Manson the title of 'Reverend' awarded by the Church of Satan's founder Anton LaVey. 1995's EP Smells Like Children also pushed the band forward with the hit 'Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)' in the forefront; but it wasn't until 1996's Antichrist Superstar that Marilyn Manson became a household name. Some of the most iconic singles from this shock rock band are 'Beautiful People,' 'The Dope Show,' and 'I Don't Like the Drugs, But the Drugs Like Me.'

Marilyn Manson Tickets - The Sound and Style of Manson

Contrary to what many might think would be brainless crazy rock, the mystical mind of Brian Warner, essential creator of the Marilyn Manson persona, had an intellect for many free speech issues and also a true understanding for the basis of all religions. When you're watching a Marilyn Manson concert or listening to Manson music, you're really listening to sheer genius. His music was a phenomenon all by itself.
